You gain no social capital from being woke? Why are so many university professors and their student's "woke" then? $100k a year pays for what?

Woke - PMC trauma therapists looking down their noses at the working class and blaming their white skin colour for all the faux-trauma generated troubles in the world (aka "racism")

You can't wear a diploma. Other "signs" (virtue signals) must be "displayed".

Minus: Why are so many university professors and their student's "woke" then?

Because smart people tend to have more progressive-wired brains.

Studies show a statistical correlation between higher measured IQ or cognitive performance and socially liberal or left-wing political beliefs, though the relationship varies depending on the specific dimension of politics being measured.

What the Research Shows.

• Social Liberalism: Multiple studies -- including family and sibling research published in journals like Intelligence -- find that higher cognitive ability and genetic markers (polygenic scores) for educational attainment and intelligence modestly predict social liberalism and lower authoritarianism.

• Economic Conservatism vs. Social Issues: The link is strongest for social issues (such as civil liberties, social tolerance, and traditional vs. non-traditional values). When looking at economic conservatism or fiscal policies, the correlation is much weaker, more complex, or can even reverse depending on income and education levels.🛑

While stupid people (like Qtard, for example), tend to be conservative.

lol! University attendance for woke indoctrination doesn't correlate with IQ?

Les Carpenter said...

Nope, it doesn't. Not in the way you imply. The IQ of " woke" individuals are generally higher than cons.

This doesn't happen. You're thinking of what you do. Which is to pretend any and all unwanted information is "Demn propaganda".
